Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

When you want a treat but you don’t want to waste calories, you will definitely want to make these delicious Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies!

My New Year’s resolution was to make healthier life choices, but in small, manageable places. The first new choice I made was to change my breakfast from sugar cereal topped with berries to a protein rich oatmeal topped with berries.

What I love most about these Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies is that I don’t have to feel guilty when I want to enjoy one. I thought hard about the recipe for these cookies and made sure to choose ingredients that would pack a punch!

Depending on what kind of peanut butter and oats you use, each cookie could potentially have 10g of protein in each one!

That’s a snack I can feel good about giving my kids and treating myself to!
